The homedir of a user cannot be changed if any processes are running
as them, so having it change over time as upgrades happen will break
puppet application, as the old grafana process under supervisor will
effectively lock changes to the user's homedir.
Unfortunately, that means that this change will thus fail to
puppet-apply unless `supervisorctl stop grafana` is run first, but
there's no way around that.
In the event that extracting doesn't produce the binary we expected it
to, all this will do is create an _empty_ file where we expect the
binary to be. This will likely muddle debugging.
Since the only reason the resourfce was made in the first place was to
make dependencies clear, switch to depending on the External_Dep
itself, when such a dependency is needed.
The default in the previous commit, inherited from camo, was to bind
to 0.0.0.0:9292. In standalone deployments, camo is deployed on the
same host as the nginx reverse proxy, and as such there is no need to
open it up to other IPs.
Make `zulip::camo` take an optional parameter, which allows overriding
it in puppet, but skips a `zulip.conf` setting for it, since it is
unlikely to be adjust by most users.
The upstream of the `camo` repository[1] has been unmaintained for
several years, and is now archived by the owner. Additionally, it has
a number of limitations:
- It is installed as a sysinit service, which does not run under
Docker
- It does not prevent access to internal IPs, like 127.0.0.1
- It does not respect standard `HTTP_proxy` environment variables,
making it unable to use Smokescreen to prevent the prior flaw
- It occasionally just crashes, and thus must have a cron job to
restart it.
Swap camo out for the drop-in replacement go-camo[2], which has the
same external API, requiring not changes to Django code, but is more
maintained. Additionally, it resolves all of the above complaints.
go-camo is not configured to use Smokescreen as a proxy, because its
own private-IP filtering prevents using a proxy which lies within that
IP space. It is also unclear if the addition of Smokescreen would
provide any additional protection over the existing IP address
restrictions in go-camo.
go-camo has a subset of the security headers that our nginx reverse
proxy sets, and which camo set; provide the missing headers with `-H`
to ensure that go-camo, if exposed from behind some other non-nginx
load-balancer, still provides the necessary security headers.
Fixes#18351 by moving to supervisor.
Fixeszulip/docker-zulip#298 also by moving to supervisor.
